Smite on PS4 - Thoughts and Impressions

Smite has finally arrived on the PS4. The MOBA game has already been out on PC and Xbox One for a while now and has been met with critical acclaim from critics and fans alike but how is the transition to PS4? Pixel Cheat's Stephen Wallace explains what's different and the problems of the PS4 port.

Works well in all fairness, the menu system is a bit clunky and finding the hero you want to play on hero selection is a pain (Its a horizontal list A-Z) you can filter but it takes time so maybe a favourites feature that puts them before the rest of the heroes would help I dunno but so far I am enjoying it and the controls work really well once you have had a bit of practice.

I'm having so much fun with it.

SuberMedic3330d ago

It's one of the best F2P games on PS4 right now!

ZaWarudo3330d ago

Yes! i wish i can see how many hours i've put into the game.

iDadio3330d ago

Enjoyed it so much I bought the half price pack after a day, to get all the heroes current and the future heroes is a great bargain for £12 as I can now experiment and buy skins with my unneeded favour :)

Anyone able to compare this to Paragon? To me it looks like Smite is too late to compete with that.

newshot3330d ago

Have you even played these games? How is smite to late when it's already out? Smite is a way better moba then paragon.

nX3330d ago

I've played Smite a few years ago on PC, got bored after two matches. I've played Paragon for around 20 hours now and it's at least better than what I remember of Smite. I was just asking why someone would pick Smite over Paragon at this point.

SuberMedic3330d ago

I feel that we need to wait for Paragon's release before we can make that judgement. Though the game does look pretty good.

i've already done my early access review of Paragon, it grabbed me like nX, i cant get into smite for the life of me. the art style doesnt draw me in, the combat is way too fast for me and the aiming is off.

i find that if you dont know what you're doing you get ganked way too fast, while in Paragon, its more accessible.

this is from a Paragon Alpha Tester

Paragon is still very early. There are some balancing issues with some characters and pacing. But, otherwise, it has promise. Smite is much more complete, having been out for years. It probably won't change too much from what it is now. If you are interested in Paragon, I hear that they plan on having some free open weekends where everybody gets the chance to try it before it releases.

Why Dark Souls 2 Deserves a Second Chance in 2025

As difficult and frustrating as it is, people should consider reliving the Dark Souls 2 experience, especially because of what's coming to the game.

Many of those who hate Dark Souls II hate it because it's not Dark Souls. The same people love Dark Souls III because it isn't Dark Souls II.

And so many of the issues at the centre of common complaints about DS2 are present in DS3 and sometimes even DS1. The hatred and bile spewed over this perfectly decent game is ludicrous.

I don’t think it’s a terrible game, but like a movie sequel by a different director, for me, it does NOT capture any of the “magic” felt from the Miyazaki entries. Boss battles don’t feel epic, environments don’t have the same sense of awe, the enemy variety isn’t particularly interesting, the art direction just feels bland, about the only thing I can give it praise for is some of the music.

Now, again, this is only how I feel about it, so I’m not trying to invalidate his you feel about the game, but it is the worst entry in the series due to those factors and it’s the least re-visited entry, for me.

Is it decent as a game on its own? Sure. But in comparison to the Miyazaki entries, it does not stack up and I believe that’s where many were disappointed with it.

PrimeVinister9h ago

Completely fair. I cannot disagree either, mate.

You can also play it in VR flawlessly on PC & controller with the LukeRoss mod so… another reason to jump back in with extra immersion.

It’s not a bad game it’s just not as good as the others

Glad they didn't change the art style. This is looking good.. Why did they change the way the characters look anyway? The very first style was kind of ok, it was fine by Risky's Revenge and Pirate's Curse.. both in game sprite and the dialogue popups, why keep changing it? I am not as fussed on her newer look. She's looking kinda too dark or sunburnt now.
